That's the update I needed. I know how those cheepie tickets can fill a park. Maybe another time.

It would be June 1 if we pull the trigger.

I agree it works well. I just don't like the $150/day extra it costs for something that was free pre-Shutdown. That and I hate looking looking looking at my phone, not realizing at the end of my trip I'd skipped on all the small things and fun details because I was trying to maximize my...

I've tried to experience the bubble at DL as I get to WDW. I can't get it. And listen, DL was my first Disney park and I'm a Californian through and through. But Florida just gets it right. I've stayed at Paradise/Pixar Pier Hotel and even the Disneyland Hotel. I could never feel that bubble...

Paint the Night is THE BEST! For us, this was the greatest thing DL ever created. It's just the best - a hat tip to the MSEP but current and not campy. This parade alone made it worth it coming to the parks. What's the skinny?

I've not been since 2022. Used to do 5 day trips yearly. But with G+, it doesn't feel like a value anymore - spend a lot and stand in lots of lines or spend EVEN more and get what used to be free??? Anyway, we didn't go last year and we weren't going this year. But I'm down in SoCal to hit Pismo...

This. Whether it's locals visiting or the local CMs, WDW seems to be more of the "bubble of magic" because people come from everywhere to visit, and people move from all over the world to work there. And ...it could be more of a Southern thing where folks are simply more respectful than us...

Welcome to the 21st Century, Tomorrowland.

Remember a few years ago when getting an ADR even 5 days out was easy to do? I miss those days. Luckily for me, hardly anything that requires an ADR appeals to me anymore. It ain't like WDW where an ADR is a must nearly every day if you want good food.

I do use points. But man, I guess I don't have the point that you do. To be able to fly your family on points and just stay for two days, and then pay for hotels with points left over? That's really nice. I've got point envy! My points I got this year covered a VRBO stay at Pismo and then...

That used to be me. I'd complain about it a little, but there always seemed to be value. Then... Diaper Genie+ hit. I didn't have to just get tickets - I had to get the fastness system. After living for 20 years with FP, I can't go without. What I saw on my last trip, tons of people in standby...

Seems like there was a recent thread about Disney already being overpriced. This seals the deal for us this year. We were still going back and forth, though leaning against. But now it's an extra $100 for our set of 3-day tickets. Doesn't seem like much of an increase...unless it was already...

It might not be popular, but I'll agree with you. I can't speak to lately. Wife and I have been married 21 years. The first 10 years was 7 trips to WDW. The last 10 years have been DL trips (because the $2500 price tag for flying doesn't fit this working-man's budget). It seems like DL has rides...

Columbus Day or not, October is always really busy. Think of it as summer without less chance of sweltering heat.

I do believe we've found something we can all agree on. But based on this thread, who knows.

Shoot, they don't even have NorCal discounts.

We never use G+ for first in the morning. The crowds are usually low. But we're thinking about the same time and I wonder how it will be. No APs will be there, but there'll be plenty of people, no doubt. I'm interested in responses here.

I have a business meeting in Orlando in late-summer 2025. And while I want to see this new park, I'm worried that Universal will be swamped that first week of August. I don't have much interest in WDW anymore. Used to, that was the place to go. But I'm just not a fan of the people who do Disney...

The ability to do Hogawrts Express is worth the cost. Plus the ability to get to Volcano Bay is a big deal to us in the afternoon.

We really love Cabana Bay. Cool vibe for sure.
